New Super Luigi U Ups The Ante!

For those who feel that the latest Mario game for the Wii U wasn’t hard enough, you’re in luck. There’s a new downloadable content coming to the eShop for New Super Mario Bros. U that features Mario’s sometime forgotten brother, Luigi! Nintendo’s general manager of EAD Software Development Takashi Tezuka talked at E3 about how he wanted to give Mario lovers something worth the money spent:

“Most people think of downloadable content as just another add-on to a game – in Japanese you say ‘add-on content’ but New Super Luigi U is such a large-scale thing – it’s like a completely different game. It was our idea to change what DLC is.”

Nintendo sure knows how to go about making good DLC! Make sure you give the New Super Luigi U a go when it drops on the eShop this month. There will be a retail release of the game coming in August as well.
